A given number of credits equates, promo-credits could not be used to purchase items as gifts for other members and may not be traded back to an IMVU re-seller for actual currency. With relation to a standard free or full member, promo-credits were similar to standard credits. Promotional credits, abbreviated to “predits,” were a second form of currency distributed to members by IMVU and could be obtained by participating in various 'Partner' promotions and a few activities that IMVU provides. Credits can also be attained through IMVU gift cards available from retail outlets, as well as completing surveys and the game's daily spin, where a player can win either an item or an amount of credits. IMVU contains its own economy with a currency system based on IMVU ' credits' and 'promo credits.' A third form of currency also existed for creators, known as 'developer tokens,' which were earned when a user purchases an item with 'promo-credits.' Credits could be purchased online using actual currency directly from IMVU.
